You were arrested on Saturday, 4th of October.

Can you tell us what you were doing at Denby Hall, Martin?

It was a party.

BANGS GONG, CHEERING

Don't you think it's strange they didn't offer to put us up?

It's his birthday. You're the kids' godfather.

Makes no sense.

'This morning, I let the chairman of the 1922 Committee

'know of my resignation as leader of the Conservative Party.'

Jarvis Conrad and his team are gearing up for a leadership bid.

I'd like you to endorse me.

The element of surprise is worth more than a thousand troops.

At a party? In a war.

Is there anything else I should know?

No surprise announcements I should be aware of?

You mean me? Mm.

BEN LAUGHS Oh, no!

This is about the party. We have to scare Jarvis.

I can talk to him.

Not very comradely of you, LS -

sneaking around, suggesting I should stand down.

Don't run, mate.

'Amina Bates paid me a visit.'

She wanted to know what happened at university, between you and Ben.

I'll keep an eye on you, mate.

You're like his little shadow, aren't you?

Following him around, his every move.

This is he.

Martin, my sister, Phoebe. Hello.

Hope you're not a pacifist, Martin.

He's born to kill, Mummy. Aren't you?

'Ben's the closet homosexual.

'I just hope he has the guts to be himself.'

Urges are urges.

Nothing one can do.

'You've a violent history, don't you, Martin?'

LAUGHTER

GUNSHOT

'No comment.'

'It kills you in the end, denying who you are.'

You've killed before, haven't you?

Martin Gilmour, you got behind the wheel of a car,

even though you were three times over the legal limit.

Your recklessness, your selfishness

and your disregard for the safety of your passengers

resulted in the death of Phoebe Fitzmaurice.

For that offence, under Section 3A of the Road Traffic Act,

I sentence you to four years' detention,

of which you will serve half.

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

THUMPING MUSIC PLAYS

ALL GASP

APPLAUSE

It's so nice being back with everyone, isn't it?

Yeah. Yeah, it's really nice. So nice.

You know, in one way, people have changed so much,

and in another way, they've barely changed at all.

Yeah. It's mad.

Ladies.

What have I missed?

I was just saying that in one way, people have changed so much,

and in another way, they've barely changed at all.

Mate, I literally haven't had a moment to...

to check in with you or Luce.

How's it going? It's great.

It's going good, yeah. Yeah?

Mm-hm. Not bad for a couple that never shag, 'ey?

I'm just being a dick, Martin. I'm just being a dick.

I'm just riffing on what you've told me in the past, that's all.

BEN CLEARS THROAT I know.

Anyway...

We should be celebrating. Here's me putting you to work.

Not at all.

Speaking of which, erm, how did Mr Jingle-Jangle respond?

Curveball.

Oh? Tell me.

Amina Bates met with Jarvis.

Is she being a nosy parker? You could say that.

What's she being a nosy parker about?

Me and you. What happened to Pheebs.

Well, that's the thing with my sister -

always has a way of making herself be known,

demanding to be a part of it all.

What do you want me to do? Absolutely nothing.

What do you want me to do?

Well, perhaps just try to be a little more measured this evening.

LAUGHS

Elinor's resignation,

Amina sniffing around,

Jarvis on the attack.

I mean, it just pumps you up, I can tell.

Just don't rise to it, mate.

Don't do a Ben. Not tonight.

You're always looking out for me.

Message received, loud and clear.

And, erm, definitely don't mention her.

She was my sister, LS.

APPLAUSE

AUDIENCE GASP

So, going anywhere nice on your holidays, Farni?
